“Sinema Kulübü'müzün 21'inci buluşmasında Yorgos Lanthimos'un yönettiği, başrollerinde Emma Stone, Mark Ruffalo ve Willem Dafoe'nun yer aldığı, 2023 yılı yapımı, orijinal adı “Poor Things” olan, bizde “Zavallılar” adıyla gösterime giren filmi konuştuk.Filmde, Victoria dönemi atmosferinde, eksantrik bilim insanı Dr. Godwin Baxter tarafından yeniden hayata döndürülen Bella Baxter'ın, kendi kimliğini ve özgürlüğünü keşfetme yolculuğunu anlatılıyor. Bella, ilk başta dünyaya karşı tamamen masum ve bilgisiz bir şekilde yaklaşırken, zamanla hem bireysel arzularını hem de toplumsal baskıları sorgulamaya başlıyor.Victoria dönemi Kraliçe Viktoriya'nın hüküm sürdüğü 1837-1901 yıllarına karşılık geliyor ve bu dönem sanayi devrimi ile birlikte emek sömürüsü ve işçi hakları gibi toplumsal ve ekonomik konularla anılıyor. Günümüzde de iş hayatını ve toplumsal hayatı kökten değiştiren teknolojik ve siyasi bir atmosferden geçerken film yaşadıklarımıza bir anlamda ışık tutuyor.Film, büyüme, özgürleşme ve kişisel iradenin oluşumu temalarını, mizahi bir dille ve çarpıcı görselliklerle işliyor. Bella'nın hikâyesi, özellikle kadınların kendi hayatları üzerinde söz sahibi olabilmesi, toplumun dayattığı rollerin aşılması ve bireyin yeniden doğarak kendi yolunu çizmesi üzerine derinlikli bir anlatı sunuyor. Yorgos Lanthimos, seyirciyi hem görsel olarak büyülüyor hem de rahatsız edici derecede doğrudan sorular sormaya teşvik ediyor. Gerçekten üzerinde uzun uzun konuşabileceğimiz replikler var.Film, 96. Akademi Ödülleri'nde En İyi Film, En İyi Yönetmen ve En İyi Uyarlama Senaryo'nun da aralarında olduğu 11 dalda Oscar'a aday gösterildi. En İyi Kadın Oyuncu (Emma Stone), En İyi Prodüksiyon Tasarımı, En İyi Kostüm Tasarımı ve En İyi Makyaj ve Saç Tasarımı olmak üzere dört dalda Oscar ödülüne layık görüldü.Biz de oyunculukları çok beğendik, çünkü çok fantastik öğeler barındıran bir ortamda o karakterleri yaratmak bir ustalık işi. Filmi hem görsel nitelikleriyle hem de mesajlarıyla beğendik, size de önce izlemenizi sonra bizi dinlemenizi tavsiye ederiz.Bu bölümde görüşlerine yer verebildiğim arkadaşlarım(02:35) Suat Soy, (06:48) Elif Burcu Yılmaz, (08:55) Ebru Vural, (10:24) Olcay Çat, (11:35) Cem Çağatay Karaali, (14:54) Uğur İyidoğan ve (16:22) Gamze Şenfer.Support the show

"The only thing worse than being incompetent, or being unkind, or being evil, is being indecisive."This week The Wives Colangelo are heading to Connecticut and contemplating whether or not being a jerk who wears Vineyard Vines is enough to justify meeting the sharp end of a kitchen utensil by discussing THOROUGHBREDS. Discussions for this gorgeous, creepy movie include trying to figure out why the emotionless Amanda is more relatable than the overly emotional Lily, why so many movies want to look like they were made by Yorgos Lanthimos, how growing up wealthy rots your brains, and what true love in a friendship can look like between two deeply unwell teenage girls.---Become a Patron!https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom----MONTHLY SPOTLIGHTThe Buckeye Flame! https://thebuckeyeflame.com/----Follow the Show: @ThisEndsAtPromBJ Colangelo: @BJColangeloHarmony Colangelo: @Veloci_trap_tor / @HarmonyColangelo on Bluesky----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

From breaking bones to trudging through snow – it is a Foley artist's role to reproduce the everyday sound effects that are added to film, TV and games. By using a variety of unconventional props and their own bodies, the goal is to create an authentic soundscape that will enhance our auditory experience. If the Foley goes unnoticed then they've done their job well! Datshiane Navanayagam speaks to two award winning Foley artists and asks what it's like to spend so much time, quite literally stepping into someone else's shoes. Caoimhe Doyle has over 25 years' experience creating Foley sound effects and footsteps for film, television and video games. She's been nominated three times for the MPSE Golden Reel Award for her work on Colm Bairéad's An Cailín Ciúin (The Quiet Girl), The Favourite, directed by Yorgos Lanthimos and David Cronenberg's Eastern Promises. In 2011 she won a MPSE Golden Reel Award and was nominated for an Emmy for her work on Game of Thrones: Season 1 and is a current MPSE nominee for work on Rich Peppiatt's Kneecap. Caoimhe collaborates with an all-female team out of The Foley Lab in a quiet part of County Wicklow in Ireland.Marita Sbeih is a Lebanese Foley artist and one of only a handful working in the Middle East. Since 2018, she has been the dedicated Foley Artist at DB Studios in Beirut, which provides audio post-production for films, documentaries, and art productions from around the globe. Pursuing a career as a Foley artist in a country with many unique challenges has been far from easy, but Marita has built an impressive list of credits for Foley and footsteps in some of the Arab world's more distinguished art-house and indie productions, as well as international projects. Most recently, she worked on Hot Milk, a UK film directed by Rebecca Lenkiewicz, which was selected for the official competition at the 75th Berlinale (2025).Produced by Hannah Dean (Image: (L) Caoimhe Doyle courtesy Caoimhe Doyle.

Tune in as Clayton Jones II (Men Who Like Men Who Like Movies Podcast) heads back to this program for a review and recap of The Killing of a Sacred Deer, the 2017 film that follows a cardiovascular surgeon and his family as their meticulous and pristine life starts to collapse at the hands of a teenage boy.

As we all emerge from our holiday slumber, we are turning back the clock to one of our favorite interviews from 2024. Whether he's starring in major movies like ELEMENTAL or JURASSIC WORLD DOMINION, or sinking his teeth into roles like Yorgos Lanthimos' KINDS OF KINDNESS, actor Mamoudou Athie follows his gut and ignores the algorithms. When Dev Patel's directorial debut, MONKEY MAN hit theaters, Mamoudou found new depths of admiration for Patel as an actor and director — and he also found a character he could deeply relate to in the determined Bobby/The Kid. It's an amazing conversation. So good, we had to play it twice!Then, Jordan has one quick thing about the January slate of films just around the corner.***With Jordan Crucchiola and Mamoudou Athie

In this episode of *Cutting Deep Into Horror*, hosts Henrique Couto and Rachael Rodolfi dive into the harrowing landscape of Yorgos Lanthimos' *The Killing of a Sacred Deer*, a film that embodies the depths of trauma and moral complexity. Join us as we engage in a profound discussion on parental responsibility, guilt, and the chilling consequences of choices made in the dark corners of our minds.As we unpack the film's narrative, Henrique and Rachael examine the nuances of familial bonds challenged by the haunting specter of a boy seeking revenge for his father's death. The podcast begins with a heartfelt conversation about family gatherings, setting a stark contrast for the dark themes to follow. Henrique and Rachael explore their emotional connections to the film while highlighting key moments that illustrate the struggles between love and moral dilemmas.The episode allows listeners to traverse the unsettling journey of Stephen (Colin Farrell), a heart surgeon whose seemingly perfect life begins to unravel as he's confronted with the consequences of his past actions. From the eerie presentation of family dynamics to the deeply unsettling interactions with Martin (Barry Keoghan), the hosts analyze how fear and trauma manifest in frightening yet relatable ways. Their observations are punctuated with humor, insightful commentary, and frank discussions about the nature of horror and personal responsibility.As Stephen grapples with Martin's demands for retribution, the difficult choices he faces culminate in a shocking climax that forces the audience to confront their own beliefs about justice and sacrifice. The unique storytelling style, mixing dark humor with visceral horror, is a focal point of discussion, as Henrique and Rachael reflect on the movie's impact and the moral quandaries it presents.In later segments, the conversation delves into the critical moments leading to the film's unsettling conclusion, exploring themes of existential dread and the fleeting nature of life. They touch on the symbolism of isolation and the haunting reality of familial love overshadowed by the specter of loss. With compelling insights, they guide listeners through a narrative that resonates with the intuitively unsettling nature of guilt and choice.Ultimately, the episode poses crucial questions that challenge listeners to reflect on their values and the complexities of human relationships. As the discussion draws to a close, listeners are left to ponder whether the price of revenge is ever worth the cost of losing one's humanity.**Join the Conversation**If you're interested in sharing your thoughts on this chilling episode or the themes explored in *The Killing of a Sacred Deer*, we want to hear from you!

Send us a textHow do you make sense of the bizarre yet captivating world of Yorgos Lanthimos? That's what my brother Mike and I aimed to uncover in our latest Oh Brother Podcast episode. We kicked things off by wrestling with the perplexing narrative and stylistic choices in "Kinds of Kindness." While I couldn't get past the dissonant music and stilted dialogue, Mike helped me see the method in the madness by connecting it to Lanthimos's other works like "Poor Things" and "The Lobster." We also chatted about the stellar performances from Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons, and how they navigate the unsettling territory typical of Lanthimos's films.From there, our conversation veered into the realm of shocking and artistic filmmaking, especially within a trilogy of films that left us both disturbed and intrigued. Themes of control, dependence, and sexual perversion took center stage, with unforgettable performances by Willem Dafoe, Jesse Plemons, and Emma Stone. We couldn't help but compare these avant-garde movies to classics like "Eyes Wide Shut" and "Sex, Lies, and Videotape," ultimately finding a new appreciation for Lanthimos's nuanced storytelling, even if the explicit content continued to spark debate between us.To lighten the mood, we reminisced about a hilarious Saturday Night Live skit featuring Sean Hayes, Jimmy Fallon, and Will Ferrell. This set us off on a tangent about the role of absurdity and realism in film. We marveled at how dark material can unexpectedly be punctuated with humor, thanks to performances by actors like Jesse Plemons and Emma Stone. Wrapping up the episode, we gave a heartfelt shout-out to our loyal supporters, especially our friends from the Rexer Show. We raised our "Oh Brother" mugs in gratitude and shared our excitement for future episodes. Join us for an engaging discussion filled with film analysis, humor, and a dash of absurdity!Actress Karissa Lee Staples Support the showOh Brother Podcast: Subscribe on YouTube Listen on all podcast platforms Follow us on Instagram Leave a 5-star rating/review on Apple Podcasts

Set and Production designer Shona Heath creates enchanting, dense, and detailed worlds. Dreams within themselves, her visions have been manifested across the pages of top publications, and in collaborative partnerships with the likes of Tim Walker, Louis Vuitton, Dior, Prada, Miu Miu, and SHOWstudio. Her style seamlessly blends contemporary and vintage elements, showcasing a unique, fantastical aesthetic—brought to life through paper sculpting, painting, photography, and prop-building. Most recently, her work on Yorgos Lanthimos's 2023 film Poor Things won an Academy Award for Best Production Design. In an age of worldbuilding, Heath shares a journey from the countryside to imagining entire realms, underlining that creativity plays a role in designing our everyday lives. Episode Highlights: Growing up in the British countryside in a modern sixties home, Heath remembers an upbringing spent outdoors, where she became intrigued with visions of scale; her mother's crafts were also a deep influence. She started her career in costume design and was moved to create a set from paper for Dazed, which turned into requests for shop windows and later collaborations with Tim Walker. Heath's creative process begins with words or an image, but usually, the former encourages original image-making and visualizing. She sees tools like AI as potentially good research tools but detrimental to her own particular craft; its use depends on the artist and their authenticity. She recommends working independently rather than starting as an assistant to an established artist, as then you know how to forge your own path first. Though she used to feel that she experienced “excessive input” when doing a project, she now feels she can better communicate her vision and appease clients and collaborators up front. She prefers the immediacy and direct access of working in photography to working on film sets; Heath remarks she wouldn't be interested in doing a period piece that didn't have an added element of creativity like Poor Things—a film she worked on with James Price, whose decades of film expertise Heath leaned on. Fashion's tendency for retro revisits and zeitgeist trends plays well into her work (as opposed to interior design, which she says has more of a lag time between trends and the trend's appearance in the culture). Her work on Poor Things won her an Academy Award for Best Production Design. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
